What is Botox?
Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. While the term “neurotoxin” might sound intimidating, Botox is used in extremely small, controlled doses to achieve therapeutic and cosmetic benefits. It temporarily blocks nerve signals in the muscles, leading to muscle paralysis and relaxation.
The Science Behind Botox: How Does It Work?
To understand how Botox works, we need to look at the neuromuscular junction—the point where nerve cells meet muscle cells. Normally, nerve cells release a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which signals muscles to contract. Botox interrupts this process by preventing the release of acetylcholine, effectively preventing muscle contractions.

When injected into specific facial muscles, Botox causes temporary muscle relaxation, which smooths out dynamic wrinkles—those caused by repetitive facial expressions like smiling or frowning. This is why Botox is so effective for wrinkle reduction and facial rejuvenation.

Common Uses of Botox

Botox is most famous for its role in anti-ageing treatment. It is commonly used to treat:

  • Forehead lines
  • Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
  • Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
The results are not permanent but last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, depending on factors like Botox dosage and individual metabolism.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can have Botox

Botox Treatment can be used for treating wrinkles in men and women, however men often need slightly higher doses than women.

Who should not have Botox?
  • Women who are pregnant or breast feeding.
  • People with muscle problems or chronic diseases affecting the muscles, such as Myasthenia Gravis, Eaton Lambert syndrome.
  • People with infection at the proposed injection site.
  • People who have previously had an allergic reaction to Botulinum toxin type A injections.
  • Children under the age of 18 year.
How many Botox treatment sessions will I need?

Botox treatment takes a few days to start working but can take as long as 10-14 days for the full paralysing effects to show through.  The treatment is not permanent, so we recommend repeat treatments at 3-6 monthly intervals to maintain the effects once the treatment is starting to wear off. As sun-damage is one of the main culprits in encouraging wrinkle formation we always suggest that our clients should use a daily SPF of 30+.
Over time, people who have regular Botox treatments can notice the muscles getting thinner and weaker, which means they are less able to create the wrinkles in the first place.  You may notice that the Botox works more effectively and lasts longer with each subsequent treatment.

Are there side effects of Botox?

The needles used for Botox injections are very fine and approximately the same diameter as coarse human hair. The discomfort associated with this treatment is mild and no local anaesthetic is required.
You will be able to carry out all of your usual daily activities immediately after your injections, including driving. Patients with more delicate skin often have some redness at the injection sites immediately after treatment but this will subside over the next hour or so. You may also develop slight bruising at the injection sites, however, this is normally very mild and easily covered by light make-up. Otherwise there will be no visible signs of your skincare treatment.
In rare cases, the botox can migrate to nearby muscles, causing some weakness, such as drooping of the upper eyelid. This is a temporary side effect, lasting for a few weeks at most. If you suffer any side-effects we request you contact the clinic immediately so we can offer you advice.

I came to Jen as I had a few hormonal breakouts which is unusual for me. I also have oily skin. She recommended the Carbon Laser facial, it is the best skin treatment! I can see results already, it’s reduced some ageing spots, reduced the appearance of my pores, my skin feels brighter and looks plumper. I would definitely recommend Jen for any skincare concerns, she’s very knowledgeable and would find a suitable treatment catered to your skin type.

I've had two PRP sessions with Jen as my main area of concern was my under eye area. In just two months, I've noticed a dramatic difference. The hyperpigmentation was cleared so much; I'm excited for my third session. I am petrified of needles and blood (and yet I'm doing PRP lol), and Jen calms me down before every session and is patient with me. She's super knowledgeable and honest with her advice, which I appreciate a ton. Her services are so well priced and I'm so grateful I found her insta!

LASER HAIR REMOVAL Having never had any treatment like this before I was a bit nervous but I shouldn't have been. Jenny is so lovely and makes you relax. The leg hair removal has been a complete success after 6 sessions with the new laser machine. The procedure is quick and painless and the treatment room is comfortable, clean and cosy. I would definitely recommend Jenny and the treatment to anyone.

I decided to have lip filler and booked in Skinique. On arrival I was greeted and made to feel very welcome. Jen was amazing and explained everything very clearly. During the filler process she made sure I was still comfortable. I had originally booked in for 0.5ml but after her recommendation I decided to go for a full 1ml, so glad I took Jens advice. I am so happy with my lips 💋. She also did me some boyox on my pimply chin at the same time and did me a fantastic discount xxxxxxx Totally recommend 👌 😊 xx
